BENTLEY 111 and 50.
CHANGE GEAR LEVER.
Please receive herewith blueprints of
G.CD.761 showing layout of the position of the change
gear lever and driver's seat positions.
It will be seen that the relationship
between the gear lever knob and the top of the seat
is practically the same for both cars.
The gear lever for both cars is unaltered,
and in accordance with PD.154.
This drawing is made as a record of the seat
positions with reference to the gear lever. No work
is needed on it.
